No, the vast majority of 0.01 ISK'ing happens completely legitimately. There are just that many people trading in the game.

I guess this is just some kind of covert advertisement....

But I get the mental image of someone else on the globe thinking to himself, WTF I hate that bot that change his buy orders in 12 different regions at once right after me.

You get 0.01'd in 12 regions because

a) it is one scroll of a mouse vs retyping
b) why not? it keeps the individuals profits higher.
c) because it annoys people
d) because they are bots.

One of those is less likely than the other 3.

Or "EVERY MINER BUT ME IS A BOT".

Edit:
It's like some people think EVE is a single player game with forums attached. :p

Dude I put up with 2 regions, I have 9 important competitors, and I know when every one of them sleeps, takes a lunch, which ones smoke, etc.

They kick the &^%% out of me on a daily basis, but im glad its people, as a matter of fact, I made a friend of one of them recently.


Theres allot of traders out there, you should be very happy about it, even thought they take most of the ISK, if it wasnt for us who would bring the goods so convieniently to all these systems?
Who would take the time to place orders in those deserted places you and your friends run missions, plexes?

We just keep the economy going and maintain it, find problems and report them, in turn CCP rewards us with some ISK depending on how many hours we spend on it.

I did spot one bot not to long ago, reported it and Immediately, it went byby, CCP, big papa is watching Jita and Amarr like a hawk, Its speckling clean.
